The cigars are thus pressed into each other and become a "squarish" or semi-square shape. Today, cigar makers use square shaped molds or a wooden trunk press for their box pressed cigars, achieving a more defined square section.

I have been eagerly awaiting this cigar for many months so I couldn't wait to smoke this particular stick one we received them. The cigar itself is very smooth to the touch with very few veins. During the initial light I detected a little bit of pepper but also a multitude of earth notes as well. I also tasted some brown sugar and chocolate too. During the course of the smoke I had no issues with the burn or draw. At no point was the cigar too strong or too mild, I really felt this stick was an excellent representation of an overall medium bodied smoke. Towards the end of the cigar I felt it gave of a slightly distinct citrus aroma almost orange like. The tastes throughout the cigar are very unique and I really felt like I was smoking something special. If you are looking for something different you should take the time to pick up one of these today!
